OK, here's another wrinkle: The modules in that folder import fine on the browser end. I put tagging in there, and that shows up in my admin list with no errors. So mod_python is picking up the vhost file, but I'm not getting it in the shell. Thus when I try python manage.py shell with anything from the apps folder installed, I get a "no module named tagging" error and can't get into the shell.
Here's what sys.path looks like in the shell: /var/www/vhosts/redfenceproject.com/redfence/redfenceproject /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c5-py2.4.egg /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.4-linux- x86_64.egg /usr/lib64/python24.zip /usr/lib64/python2.4 /usr/lib64/python2.4/plat-linux2 /usr/lib64/python2.4/lib-tk /usr/lib64/python2.4/lib-dynload /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/Numeric /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0 /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages It looks like I'm not loading either directory here.
